The argument.
The Spouse consyderyng the carefulnes that her Beloued taketh for her and her maydens, admonisheth them therof: and declaring what loue she beareth hym agayne, and wyll doe euer, syngeth.
Christe my Beloued whiche styl doth fede
Among the flowers, hauyng delyght
Among his faythful lilies:
Among the flowers, hauyng delyght
Among his faythful lilies:
Doeth take great care for me in dede,
And I agayne with all my myght
Wyll do what so his wyl is.
And I agayne with all my myght
Wyll do what so his wyl is.
My Loue in me, and I in hym,
Conioynde by loue wyll styl abyde
Among the faythful lilies:
Conioynde by loue wyll styl abyde
Among the faythful lilies:
Tyll day doe breake, and truth do dym
All shadowes darke, and cause them slyde
Accordyng as his wil is.
All shadowes darke, and cause them slyde
Accordyng as his wil is.
